Answer 1

i think you can reuse form model and can write custom validation rules in the form and for each action. for example. hari you just give a try like this...

class RegistrationForm extends CFormModel {

  public $login;
  public $password;
  public $email;
  public $mobile;

  public function rules() {
    return array(
      array('login,password','loginValidator','on'=>'login'),
      array('login,password,email,mobile','registerValidator','on'=>'register')
    );
  }

  public function loginValidator() {
    dummyfunc($this->login,.....);
  }

  public function registerValidator() {
    dummyfunc($this->login,.....);
  }

}

Controller part:

$formModel = new RegistrationForm('login');
$formModel->attributes = $_POST['RegistrationForm'];
if($formModel->validate()) {
  #..........;
} else {
  #..........;
}

have a nice day!!!

It is better to use a user module.

This is an example of the directory structure of a user module:

protected/modules/user/
    controllers/
        LoginController.php
        LogoutController.php
        RegisterController.php
        ...
    models/
        Login.php
        Register.php
        ...
    views/
        user/
            login.php
            register.php
            ...

The directory structure of yii-user might be useful.
